Bounce Audio with empty region

[Jaadoo]

Prior to Cubase 8, I was be able to extend an audio region by penciling an empty region to desired length and bounce them to a longer region. Now in C8 I have to glue them together first , then bounce them.
Does anyone know about a setting or something to get back to the old way of doing this? I tried to setup a macro with a keycommand to do this at no avail.

Thank you

You can use “events to part” and then extend by dragging the right corner.

Nope… this is not the same. I need a audio event as product, not a part.

Do as Oliver suggests, then “Bounce Selection”… you’ll end up with an audio event that is the length of your extended Audio Part

(Btw, I, too, preferred the way it used to be in earlier versions )
